Bim360 App Windows

[Jacqualine Henington]

Mycompany just moved everything off of our server and onto BIM360. I am use to just having a series of folders on my quick access bar that will allow me to jump right to my family folder or project templates instead of browsing to the folder manually. Is there a way to do this now that all of our files are on BIM360? or a decent work around?

I have tried doing this in the past with little success. When I would update connector, I found that it would break all of my shortcut links and I would have to go and reestablish all of them even though the path was the same as before. Have you come across this issue?

No sorry I don't tend to create desktop shortcuts for any projects on BIM 360. I do however create shortcuts in my web browsers which allows me to access my projects quicker, but I guess you want to access the files from your desktop not through a browser?

I know the web browser gives you a ton more options and is by far better to use, but it doesn't allow me to drag and drop or even open the family directly. I dont know why autodesk would lock this function out to the users along with renaming in the windows browser.

I had the Autodesk Desktop Connector installed and working in Windows 7. I was also able to see a BIM360 folder which had a file manager structure similar to the Internet version of BIM360 given our Project structure. Now that I have been updated to windows 10, I can't see the file management structure like I did in windows 7. Is there a solution for this?
